Banana

Baby Pictures

It's a girl (notice the arrow)

That's the soft spot not a receding hair-line

Thumbs up     Letting us know everything is ok in there

Right now our baby girl is the size of a banana.  I'm not sure what to be suprised by more, the fact that the baby is as big as a banana or the fact that I just found out that the baby is a girl.  I thought I would be excited when I found out what sex the baby was, but I was suprised by what happened when I was in the "big" ultrasound.  Little did I know that before we find out what sex the baby was, we would measure every possible vital organ/bone not to mention head.   My mind went quickly to what kind of baby to I hope everything is ok.  It was pretty nerve wracking to watch the tech measure and record measurements of your baby when you have no idea what is going on.  Our tech was very good telling us what she was doing, but I became very anxious with each measurement.  By the time I found out what sex she was, I was relieved that everything else was ok.  I almost wonder if this is done on purpose. 

     Personally, I didn't care what we are going to have.  I speak for both of us when I say that we are very excited to invite Birkley into our lives.  So Britt is able to feel her moving and I am looking forward to when I can feel her as well.  It is pretty incredible to be able to put a sex, let alone a name, to a child that is about to come into your life.  I have started to think 1,5,10,15, even 20 years ahead.  It's a lot different now and it is exciting and kind of scares the crap out of me.  Game on.
